Today, there's the youth group Dinner Under The Stars thingy. It was at Magic Wok, Novena Square. All of us were dressed up to the nines. The girls in skirts and guys in shirts and ties. Woah.. Actually I was kind of excited to see how Sien and XL will look like in a skirt. Haha.. In all the years I've known them, I believe I've never seen them in skirts before. Sien.. Yeah. In her school skirt la. But XL, not even in that lor. So today was pretty interesting. Not to mention kinda pleasant to the eye too. I never did expect that there would be a day when everybody in my youth group would really go dress up. It's like a dream come true. Haha.. And I'm not exaggerating. :P

Oh. And there's the crux of the entire event of the night. The girls and guys were supposed to pair up and have their dinner together. The setting is kinda sweet, at the outdoors and under the night sky, the decorating committee have done a great job with the place. But hello? They certainly seemed like they are matchmaking us la. With the guys handing the flowers to the girls and pulling the chairs for them and the candles on the table.. It really felt like I've been thrown into some Romancing Singapore campaign or something. Haha.. So I was asking Huang Chun why did it feel oddly like a matchmaking session and she said that it was to actually teach us how to behave like ladies and the guys, as men. And also, our dinner etiquettes. Oh wells. My partner was Andrew. They purposely pair up guys who are of the same age or a year older than the girls. Well sure, Andrew and me are of the same age. But he's born in December. Muahaha.. Bleh.. And thank God so much that there's 4 people (me, XL, Andrew and Maax) to a table. Otherwise I won't know what to say if there were only the 2 of us and especially since I've never talked to him except once on msn. :P Yeah so.. The guys were instructed to help us get our food and drinks and all. It feels good to be served. Haha.. We eventually got the hang of things and were talking up a storm. Quite fun actually. Got to know more about each other when we don't initially. After the dinner ended, we realized that our table was probably one of the most interesting one around. Coz Sien came to our table and complained like nobody's business, that it was super boring at her table and no one was talking at all throughout the entire dinner. And she started blaming the guys at our table that guys should take the initiative to start conversations. Haha.. Then Maax and Andrew was like "But we got talk ma!!" So funny.. Haha.. :P Actually felt kind of sorry for her and Jamie coz they did try to start a conversation but it didn't really work. Then I think most probably is the fault of the guys. Tsk tsk..
